Lot 100


It has a 14K white gold wrap around the coin to make it a necklace. The assayer initial of J (Jose E deLeon) is clearly visible along with the mint mark of oM (Mexico City). Gold crowned shield - A crowned shield with the Spanish coat of arms is often paired with the Jerusalem cross on gold cobs. Most of the time, only part of the design is actually visible. The example pictured is extraordinary. You can plainly see the crown, the oM (Mexico City) mint mark, the assayer initial I or J, and a clear date of 1714. The denomination does not show on the coin, but from its size and weight it is easily identified as an 4 escudos. Further, turning to the coin catalogs which list all assayers, we know the initial is J, Jose E deLeon, who served as assayer between 1708 and 1723. Gold Jerusalem cross - Almost all gold cobs have a Jerusalem cross on one side. The cross has prominent foils around it or a circle of dots. Sometimes castles and lions appear in the angles of the cross, but not always. The pictured coin has a quatrefoil and fluers de lis in the angles. These are very valuable coins. Gold cobs were produced in Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. It weighs 15.1g in total. We describe all items to the best of our ability as we are not experts on everything.
